西域 춤의 唐代 流行 원인 연구

Abstract

Poetry, music and dance in the Tang reached a peak and was brilliantly successful. It was the golden age for dance in ancient China. From the mid-Tang a lot of minority nationality and foreign music and dance was gradually incorporated into the Han music and dance form. A dazzling new form of dance took shape under the Tang. The overwhelming majority of song and dance is divided in to the two main categories of Tang court music and dance - the “Zuobu Arts( )” and “Libu Arts( )”. Music and dance were the main forms of performing arts under the Tang. Thanks to accounts in poetry a wealth of written data has been preserved, and the murals in caves as well as dancing figurines and pictures uncovered in tombs have also provided us with valuable figurative material. The latter are particularly close to life so all the more realistic and reliable. The richness and variety of Tang dance is fully brought out in the particularities of style of each figurine's dress and dance pose which are all quite distinct. Evidently there was frequent exchange of dance between the Han people and Central Asians. Their influence on and assimilation of things from each other are borne out by history. Though based on tradition, dance in the Tang was boldly innovative, embracing many national folk dances and those brought from abroad. The reason why the central music and dances were more popular in the Tang society is their exotic and gala costumes, various and speedy movements of performances. And we can find out the evidences in the Tang poetry.
